One small thing I noticed doing a Gentoo setup on UEFI ... |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
The VFAT driver ( in UEFI ) never loaded until Windows was installed on |
| 20 |
a drive. |
| 21 |
Almost as if the driver was checking for Windows before loading ... |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Every attempt to do a Gentoo UEFI install FAILED, because the VFAT |
| 24 |
driver would not load. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
So ... Windows setup UEFI just fine. Gentoo is using GPT/GRUB. |
| 27 |
Every time I boot, the "Boot Menu" gets used to choose the OS. |
